Pet Portraits
Mick is an artist working with both sculpture and paint mediums and although much of his work is firmly in the dark art genre, he also loves creating portraits of our fury friends. Each portrait is painted in either traditional oil or a more photo realistic airbrush painting using acrylic paint on synthetic paper. Both come unframed and are painted from supplied good quality digital photographs taken here during your stay or from a favourite one you already have.
Below are samples of each style, surprisingly they are all of our dogs Nika and Mica but other examples are available on request.
£280 each (single dog)

Behaviour Consultations
Mandy is a Dog Trainer and Behaviour Consultant specialising in reactive, anxious and fearful dogs, helping owners navigate the stresses and conflicting emotions that inevitably come with living with such dogs.
Mandy is also a Dynamic Dog Practitioner and is trained to carry out functional assessments of your dogs and in identifying signs of pain and discomfort. All behaviour consultations include a full Dynamic Dog Assessment and can be carried out remotely or booked and undertaken during your stay. More information is available on her website:
Dog Sitting
We ask that dogs are not left unsupervised inside the Cottage. If you would like to go out without your dog for a trip or for dinner, then Mandy can sit with your dogs in the Cottage.
Pet Sitting is charged at £10 an hour for a maximum of 4 hours and is bookable during your stay and subject to availability.
